“revenue would magically appear” - I believe that’s one of the planks in the Democrat Party Platform. It comes right after “Choom makes you smort.”
Brown’s hocus pocus also depends on 1.9 billion in tax revenue from facebook.
Just once, I’d like Ol’ Jer to square himself with the (taxpaying) families and small businesses he’s chased out of California with his “futuristic” plans.
All that will be left will be the social and fiscal parasites.
Everybody else who has been picked clean via county and state taxes will have already gone Galt, in an attempt to keep some of what they’ve earned.
If nobody has informed Mister Moonbeam, then alas it falls to me.
I know a few of said "high-income" peeps, and they plan on leaving the state faster than you can say..."boarded-up-business".

Jerry Brown just wanting to tax the rich is B.S. I just got a bill from the board of equalization for $150.00 that has been assessed on all “rural” property owners. This is on all incomes. If your house is in the “state responsibility area” you have to pay this fee for “Fire Safe Counsels”. Now some might argue that you should pay more for fire protection if you live in a rural setting. This does not go to fire protection it goes to a new program to educate people how to make their properties more defensible but none for actual fire protection. As for the rural part I live right in the middle of a town of about 1300 people. We have a volunteer fire department but that doesn’t count. To top it off the bills they sent out are for last year. Retroactive. We will get another bill for this year.
There is nothing more dangerous than a politician in need of money. Heroine addicts have nothing on Jerry Brown. California will turn the homeless upside down to see if they can shake a few coins out of their pockets before they get this budget mess figured out.
